Temple of Dreams

Overview The priests and priestesses of the Temple of Dreams hold two major principles: first, all history must be recorded and preserved and, second, the voices of the gods must always be heard to help shape the history of humanity and bring it to greater glory. While the priesthood of Oneirod often serves as a body of historians and writers of official records, they are typically not responsible for retaining those records. Rather, once volumes are completed they are sent to temples dedicated to the Twin Sisters for archival and preservation. It is for this service of history-writing, however, that priests of Oneirod are popular advisors for magistrates who wish to be remembered well or vibrantly in history scrolls. For their dedication to the gods' voices, the priesthood of Oneirod is entrusted with the oracles. They are responsible for the selection, training, and caretaking of oracles. They decide which temples will receive visitations from the oracles, and how long those oracles will stay. History Members How to Join Priests need to apply from chargen, while those employed by the temple need only earn that affiliation and employment through RP.

Their magic aids oracles tap into their gift, allowing them to receive visions from the Dreaming God. Priests of Oneirod are the only mortals to know the language of the oracles —Oneiri—and translate and interpret the oracles' visions for the people. They are also able to put oracles into a trance that allows them to communicate with other oracles, thereby allowing swift communication over the vast distance of Calliden. Orders Order of the Eye Not made up of priests, this is the order of oracles. While training, young women do not carry the title of oracle but are considered to be daughters of the order and enjoy a small share of the prestige associated with gaining the sight.
